Hello, I have a doubt about the name "Slavie" in Czech and "Славия" in Bulgarian. I never found a word like that in Bulgarian or Czech texts, maybe only if it was treated like neologism or foreign word(f.ex. when explaining the word "Yugoslavia"(then Czech "Slávie" on Glosbe) - where in Polish the word "Słowiańszczyzna" is used there is often "slovyanstvo/slavenstvo/slavyanstvo" noun used in south Slavic languages and also in Czech or Slovak. In general it seems that the word "slavjanščina/-izna" are less used even in the East Slavic states than in Polish, more often forms with -stvo are used. It seems languages like Czech simply don't have a similar word, because "slovanščina" means "the language of the Slavs". Asank neo (talk) 10:52, 2 October 2020 (UTC)Reply
